Using the Basic Features of Your Phone

 

 

 

To set up a conference call with an active call and a call on hold:

Note

 

You can only set up a conference with an active call and a call on hold if you only

 

have one call on hold. If you have more than one call on hold, you have to set up a

 

conference using the Conference key or soft key.

 

 

 

>> If you have an active call and a call on hold (either on the same Line Key

 

or a different Line Key), tap the Join soft key.

 

The Conference screen displays.

A conference is created with the active call, the call on hold, and yourself. The conference call takes place on the Line Key from which you handled the last active call.

If the participant who was previously on hold can exchange video, you will exchange video with that participant. If the participant who was on hold cannot exchange video, you will exchange video with the other participant.

Holding and Resuming Conference Calls

When you place a conference call on hold, you place all other conference participants on hold.

To place a specific participant on hold, see Managing Conference Call Participants on page 3-22.
